Colosseum in Rome looks extra eerie in this spooky tourist snapshot

For yet another reminder that truth can be stranger than fiction (and here at msnNOW we've got loads of those stories), check out the above image. What does it look like to you? We know, we know, it's pretty obvious — a skull, duh. But wait … Actually, it's no skull. It’s a shot of the Roman Colosseum by Reddit user Burbada, who posted it online today to much geeky interest and fanfare. Redditor KookyGuy writes in response to the pic, "It's very fitting that this is at the Colosseum. Only god knows how many people died there." And we’re wont to agree with him. A cool shot in a morbidly fascinating historical location = win all around. [Source]
